Abstract: An assembly for preventing abuse of a pump mounted to a driver equipment is provided. The driver equipment and the pump have a mutually intermeshed driver gear and a driven gear respectively. The assembly includes a coupler splined to a shaft of the pump and configured to transmit torque from the driven gear to the shaft. The assembly also includes fasteners that are configured to releasably fasten the coupler to an end face of the driven gear. The fasteners are configured to shear, and disconnect the coupler from the driven gear when a torque on the driven gear exceeds an operational torque of the pump.

Abstract: An assembly for adjustably mounting a gear of a pump to a gear of a driver equipment includes a shroud member, and a hollow elongated stub-shaft. The stub-shaft includes a flange, and a hub member axially extending from the flange. The shroud member defines a first aperture whose diameter is greater than a diameter of the hub member. The hub member is received within the shroud member via the first aperture. The flange has a first set of holes to receive a first set of fasteners and releasably couple with the body of the pump. The flange also has a second set of holes that are configured to receive a second set of fasteners and releasably couple with the shroud member. A diameter of the second set of holes is greater than a diameter of the second set of fasteners.

Abstract: A pulse width modulator for use in avionics is described. This comprises an input operable to receive a direct current input and an output switch controlled to provide a pulse train having a duty cycle, whereby the output switch is configured such that each pulse within the pulse train has at least one of a sloping rising or falling edge.

Abstract: A sealing body for isolating vibrations is provided. The sealing body isolates vibrations from a cylinder body to a nozzle received at a port of the cylinder body. The sealing body includes a first portion configured to abut the port of the cylinder body. The sealing body further includes an elongated mid-portion extending from the first portion. The mid-portion is configured to resiliently absorb vibrations from the cylinder body. The sealing body further includes a second portion. The second portion is disposed within the port and located rearward of the first portion. The second portion is configured to abut the nozzle.
